No drugs were involved

Since everyone else has been posting about their weird and vivid dreams…

Right before waking up this morning, I had a dream about some WB-type live event, where they brought out stars from several shows for an impromptu cabaret. I wish I could remember all the people onstage, because it was a varied bunch of talents and performances, to say the least. For instance, one act was singing along with a large pink chenille mechanical elephant (a remnant from “Moulin Rouge”, maybe?). The last part I only remember because it happened right before I woke up; Alan Tudyk (Wash from “Firefly”), Jason Momoa (Ronon from “Stargate: Atlantis”), and Jared Padalecki (Sam on “Supernatural”, which I don’t even WATCH, dammit, but I hear all about from my flist) are standing together with harmonicas of different sizes. They start to tune them up (don’t ask me why harmonicas need tuning), and Alan, wielding the smallest one (it’s like two inches long), pulls out a black crayon, tosses it away, then pulls out a yellow crayon (!) to help him play. The crowd goes wild. Then we cut to a behind-the-scenes, pre-filmed shot with Jared, who has been tasked with creating the song for the group. He relates that he procrastinated enough in writing it that he had to go download something off the internet. We then flash back to the guys on stage, only the stage has been changed to something out of a disco (mirror ball and everything), and the guys, formerly dressed in street clothes, are now in sparkly purple shirts and tight black pants, playing their hearts out.

Then I woke up, and couldn’t decide whether to laugh at my subconscious or cry that I didn’t get to see what happened next. I mean, what the hell? How many fandoms can I fit into one dream sequence?

Is Jason Momoa the guy you're fond of from SGA?

I don't know anything about him, but the other two guys would be AWESOME doing a harmonica playing reality show in purple sequined shirts. Hee.

Perhaps this was some subconscious commentary on the nature of showbusiness... :)

Nah, Daivd Hewlett's my CB from Atlantis. He's so *dreamy*. *swoon*

Not that Jason's not a fine mountain of man-flesh. *grin* Or Joe Flanigan. But I've just got this thing for geeks, y'see -- I married one, after all.

I know, right? You can just picture Alan rocking that (teeny) thing like nobody's busines.

Or I've been reading too many fan con recaps where everyone's piling up on stage.

I am absurdly amused by the image of Ronin playing in a harmonica trio. Was he in full-on rasta-hair wigdom?

[grammarwoman]

Yup. I think that's his real hair, too.

The idea that anyone has hair that awesome proves that there is a god. And that he hates me.

This will probably cheese you off further; evidently Jason wanted to lose the dreads and had to talk to the producers, as the season 4 ender will lead right into the season 5 opener. (I can understand; he's got a baby now, and they'll grab anything within reach.)
